About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I came to Better Help to deal with grief and to handle the challenges of ongoing caregiving. Christine has been a wonderful support and guide through this transition process. She has been very empathetic and is a good listener even when I feel like I’m just being petty. She’s helping me to improve my internal self talk through therapy sessions, worksheets and responses to my journal entries. Christine has encouraged me to take better care of myself—making sure that I’m living my life as well as taking care of my loved one. I feel so much better a few months into the process. I have recommended Christine to a friend of mine going through a similar process. She’s really good!

Reviewed November 2023

I'm fairly new to therapy, so I appreciate Christine's naturally kind-hearted and gentle approach. She's a great listener, and I believe that she's passionate about her desire to help others. From what I can tell, she is someone who continues to invest in her field of study, by attending conferences, reading books from accredited authors in her field, and tuning in to what I think is a natural gift. Additionally, Ms. Mendez understands the balance between listening and providing feedback. I would describe her approach as somewhat client-guided, as she allows the conversation to flow and does her best to ensure that the client is comfortable, and provides worksheets for assessment as well as opportunity for future discussions. I would highly recommend Ms. Mendez for anyone who is new to therapy, and or would like to speak to someone who is very easy to talk to.
